Many predicted Orton would improve behind a better line and in a more modern system, but few thought he would improve so much. So maybe he hasn't. Football fans know of Derek Anderson and Rex Grossman . Both quarterbacks experienced...
A rundown of today’s early games. Check the TV distribution maps at the 506 for local coverage. Cardinals at Bears — The last time these two teams met, Dennis Green’s Buzzsaw jumped all over an error-prone Rex Grossman (SIX turnovers! Let’s see you do that, Jake Delhomme) and staked out a three-touchdown lead going into the [...]

Instead, we can sit back and watch some other games, assuming you don't mind being a...
I hope you all don't mind us posting this, as most have probably watched it a million times. But, I thought this might be a good time-killer until SackMan gets his highly-anticipated Game Preview posted. I love some of the quotes... Kurt Warner : "I've never seen anything like it." Rex Grossman to Matt Leinart : "You deserved to win this."
With a post-game press conference that will forever transcend time, the 2006 game between the Bears and the Cardinals was one for the ages. Undefeated to that point, but down 20 points at halftime, the Bears needed miracles to win that game. Of course, they got 'em. Jeff Dickerson reminisces : Rex Grossman tossed four interceptions, but got bailed out by two defensive scores by Mike Brown and Charles...

Brian Leonard and Frostee Rucker each missed practice for the entire week due to injury; both are listed as doubtful. Marvin Lewis is very unlikely to active either player; in the past, when a player missed the entire week, for the most part, they didn't play that week. Quarterback Carson Palmer fully participated in practice even with a bum thumb on his non-throwing hand. Even though they participated...
Every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evening, we'll (TRY TO) update the practice/injury chart leading up to Sunday's game. The chart is pretty self-explanatory. If the player is listed as out, they're out for the game. If they did not participate, they didn't practice. If they were limited, then they only participated during a portion of practice (typically means missing 11-on-11 drills). If the player...
The Texans rolled up 26 yards on 25 plays in the second half. I'm throwing that statistic out there to please those of you that wanted Mayor White to schedule a victory parade. Personally, I'll take an ugly victory over a dazzling defeat, but that's just me. I've been that way ever since the time I complained that the steak was tough at dinner, and Daddy slapped me upside my coconut and told me a...
The best part of Week 4 preseason is the fact you can see the real season just over the fence...and in this case, we are less than a week away from betting into regular season NFL odds on the Week 1 matchups. But there are still a handful of preseason games remaining. Let’s take a look at three of the matchups from Friday night.
